Every day, millions of products are released into the US market for sale. Prior to release, these products are to be tested and certified as safe for consumer purchase and use. However, whether not properly tested or released into the market without proper testing, consumers are often faced with injuries related to the use of unsafe or defective products. When you have been injured due to a defective product, you may be unsure of where you can turn for assistance.
Defective products endanger the lives of consumers. A product can be classified as defective when it exhibits functions and dangers which are not the intended function and are not listed as possible malfunctions or warnings on the product packaging. False marketing may also play a significant role in San Francisco product liability cases because consumers have been encouraged to purchase the product even though prior testing has proven the product has health and safety risks which are not mentioned in conjunction with the product.
